Last Monday I had the honor of being invited to attend an amazing professional color class at Aqua Beauty Lines, a Professional Beauty distribution supply. To learn one of the hottest color techniques that is the race nationally and internationally! It’s called The Ombre Color Technique; this is one of the hottest styles in color that has hit the US in a very long time. Young Hollywood has been wearing it for a few months and its popularity is growing by leaps and bounds! There are many color versions that this process can achieve and some extremely creative variations. It can go from a very dark root color to a extremely light mid shaft to ends for a very dynamic variation, to a subtle deep blonde at the roots to a few shades lighter at the ends…….I have even seen it produced with in reds that have looked super amazing. The choice is yours how dramatic and dynamic or how soft and subtle. I think what started as a fad will be a very strong contender in color for a very long time.  It has amazing qualities that benefits the person wearing it! Ombre is a color technique that gradually fades the mid hair length to the ends of the hair to a lighter shade. kinda like a summer blond that had grown out, when done properly it gives immense shine and dimension to the hair, one of the key benefits to this process for the woman who has this technique done, is that you can go much longer in between touch ups, if you have grey that needs to be colored they only have to do the roots, saving the condition of your hair. If you normally get a full head of high lights they just do the frame of the face as a touch up. It seems to look better as it grows out…………unlike other types of color techniques. There is also a Reverse Ombre Color Technique; this takes you from very blonde or very light highlights to just highlights around your face and on the ends of your hair. All in all the benefits of this technique are amazing, a beautiful current style, less stress on the hair, less time in salon for color processes and retouching, less money spent overall. In today’s economy what else could the professional beauty industry come up with that is amazing, stunning and helps their clients look great plus saves them money!….……….Here are before and after photo’s from the class……….They speak for them self! Enjoy!

The class educator was Diego Quint, Rocco Donna Salon, Miami Beach FL, The color line was Lakme from Barcelona Spain.

If you have ever wondered why High End Beauty Salons are closed on Monday’s, it’s because we are attending advanced classes in hair cutting, hair extensions, hair color & styling, plus color, makeup etc., to be able to create amazing things like this……….for YOU!
